Yes! They’re called sporophytes! Here’s what’s happening:
Mosses reproduce via spores instead of seeds.
When the moss is healthy and conditions are right (enough humidity, light, and nutrients), it sends up these slender stalks topped with tiny capsules — those are the sporangia, where spores develop.
It means your moss is thriving enough to enter its reproductive stage.
